Default Tomato growing tips for a noobie

Hey guys I am thinking about starting to grow Cherry Tomatoes indoors and I would like some Help/Tips. Lemme just tell you what I think I should do then you guys can add/correct anything.

Ok first off I have plenty of cherry tomato seeds and I plan on growing them in some Miracle Grow potting soil (or whatever I find at the Home Depot).

That was the part I got down Now This is what I would like the tips on... Lighting... I plan on using CFLs for growing...Now I understand for growing weed you use Cool White for Germinating/Veg for 16-18 hours a day and Warm White for Flowering at 12 hours a day... Is this concept the same for Tomatoes?

Also if I want to keep my tomato plant from flowering i just keep it under the Cool White bulbs and it should be fine? Or do they automaticly flower at the end of its life no matter the bulbs? Im just asking cause I would like to make it grow pretty big and try and clone it if possible.

Thanks for your help/tips.
